COLUMBIA, Mo. - Eight members of the Mizzou swimming and diving teams earned All-Southeastern Conference honors, the league announced on Thursday (April 5). All eight Tigers, seniors Sharli Brady (Burlington, Ky.), Madeline McKernan (Montgomery, Texas) and Hannah Stevens (Lexington, Ohio), juniors Sam Coffman (Centennial, Colo.), Mikel Schreuders (Oranjestad, Aruba) and Jacob Wielinski (Mounds View, Minn.), sophomore Giovanny Lima (Sao Paulo, Brazil) and freshman Grant Reed (Austin, Texas), claimed spots on the All-SEC second team.
Stevens and Wielinski took home individual second team honors after runner-up performances at the 2018 SEC Championships in February, while Coffman, Lima, Reed and Schreuders swam on Mizzou's second-place 800 free relay team at the meet to earn their selections. Brady and McKernan's second team accolades were thanks to their third-place finishes at the Championships.
Stevens took second in the 100 back at SECs in a season-best time of 50.94. It was her second-consecutive runner-up finish in the event, as she also placed second at last year's SEC Championships. Last month she concluded her Tiger career NCAA Championships with an eight-place finish in the same event for her second-straight All-America first team honor in the 100 back. She leaves Mizzou as a 14-time All-American, with six first team and eight honorable mention honors.
Wielinski earned All-SEC honors for the first time in his career with a runner-up finish in the 1650 free at the Championships. The junior, who entered the meet seeded sixth, dropped over 15 seconds from his seed time as he touched in a school record 14:44.24 for second-place honors. Wielinski followed that performance up with All-America honorable mention accolades at the 2018 NCAA Championships, as he finished 13th overall in the 1650 free.
A third-place finish in the 400 IM at the SEC Championships was enough to give Brady her All-SEC honors. She concluded her Tiger career as the most decorated individual women's swimmer in program history, with eight total individual All-America accolades. She was a two-time All-America first team selection in the 400 IM, highlighted by a sixth-place finish at this year's NCAAs. She also claimed four honorable mention honors in the 200 fly and one apiece in the 200 IM and 400 IM.
Missouri's 800 free relay also claimed runner-up honors at SECs to give Coffman, Lima, Reed and Schreuders All-SEC accolades. They shattered the school record in the event with a 6:15.38, almost three full seconds better than the old mark. The quartet also claimed All-America honorable mention honors at the NCAA Championships with a ninth-place finish in the same relay.
